Storing and transportation

As a rule, the unit is to be stored and/or transported in its
original packaging, in upright position.
For transport over short distances (<500km), and provided
that original packaging is kept and due care is taken, horizontal
transportation is permitted. Nevertheless, an inclination angle
of up to 90° must be ensured, for compressor lifetime
assurance.
Both during transport and storage, ambient temperatures
between -20 °C and +60 °C are permissible.
In case the unit has been horizontally
transported to place, it must be positioned
upright at least one hour before it can be
turned on for the first time.

3.4.1 Transport using a forklift

When transported by a forklift, the unit must remain mounted
in the base. The lifting rate should be kept to a minimum. Due to
its top-heaviness, the unit must be secured to avoid tipping
over. To prevent any damage, the unit must be placed on a level
surface!
